Oh yeah....its DJM upper and 4" lowers, and QA1 coil over conversion up front (dbl adjustable), with SSBC dual piston calipers up front with drilled and slotted rotors (redrilled to a 5 on 4 3/4 bolt pattern) and Vari-shock dbl adj. out back. I was going to use the SSBC set-up on the rear, but the calipers hit the wheels (suck). So, I am probably going to go with Willwoods on the rear. More updates to come.

Tyler buddy....thats the million dollar question.....I am hoping to get it down to around 4000lbs.....but with everything I took out......I added twice as much.....lol......we will see. Mickey is using all CM tubing......and I am going to do some more weight reduction....but the turbos are heavy as shit....so like I said....we will see.

Just plain sik man. I miss my 94ecsb now. 355 Darts and nice solid lift that thing was a lighting killer. I was suprised how well it moved for being a big body turned alot of heads. Im sure some of Houston boys seen it. Blue with silver tribal flames. But I can wait to see your finished product.

Thanks for all the props guys.....I think my biggest problem may be hooking up.....My engine guy says that at 20-25lbs of boost I will be puttin down approx. 2000hp!!!!!!! I dont know if I have enough tire for that...but we will see....I will be fun though.

I will post more as soon as I get it.

Do you have any more pics of the roll cage down tubes in the back? They don't look like they connect to the frame. Is that cool with just your local track, or is NHRA approved?

oklaracer
06-14-2009, 10:26 PM
Vanilla, he isnt done with the cage yet, once the bed is back on, he will run bars thru the cab into the bed that will be attached to the frame. It will be certified to 8.50, so it will be right before he is finished. There's still alot of work to be done.....but its gonna a sick ride fo sho. I cant wait.

pretty cool build. One question though, looks like your instant center on the 4 link is roughly in the dirt by the front tire by the pics. Is that going to work? Looking at the way it's setup it looks like there isn't enough adjustability to move it up much. :confused: I'm no chassis guru so be gentle. :eyes:

Phantom

i'm sure they got it figured it out...i'm no chassis genius either but the man doin the work is one of the best in the country
